I received an email from a friend in Florida. It says a doctor there has started an email war against immigrants. He states that one of his patients has 8 children born in the US and she gets $1,500 per month per child for "assistance".

He also claims a single refugee can apply for $1,890 per month allowance and an additional $580 per month for Social Assistance. Total $2,470 / month!

That is more than a working woman would get in social security if she worked from 1994 through 2004.

Setterman, Yes these central and south American Immigrants who have a child born in the US get Social Security or Assistance and can get child Ass. as well. I don't know the numbers per month they can get, but its true. Years ago I was working a const. job on a hospital locally. We hired labors to help the skilled workers and they all got the same pay. The Haitians all left work for one day only (last day of month) to go down to Miami and collect on some gov. money that was allowed for them only (best guess at 3-4 hundred per month). This after working all month for the same wage the other American labors got and had to live on. This has been going on for years. We are in a Sad State of Affairs, and does not look to be getting any better anytime soon. To make it worse "Now" I have to drive to work and look at them all driving brand new cars and trucks now as well. Hope something changes soon. Break=em all. Jeff
